He needs to re-read Stenton ---- particularly all the passages on
Morcar, Earl of Northumbria.

Morcar is a very important historical figure in Mediaeval British
History ---- his role was especially critical in 1066.

Moody obviously does not know about him ---- or the Earls of
Northumberland.

He has done an incompetent, clumsy, cut and paste job ---- and he has
shafted the pooch.

Hines caught him _in flagrante delicto_.

Moody The Dense is very angry ---- he has embarrassed himself ---- and
is *continuing* to embarrass himself ---- just like that cowering dog on
my putting green ---- tail between legs ---- whining.

After re-reading Stenton, Moody should hasten to a library and check
CP ---- as well as other pertinent sources. Jim Bradbury's book on the
Battle of Hastings is one such.

I've already given the citation for CP. He should hop to it ---- lest
he make an even bigger fool of himself.

Moody The Dense is one of the laziest posters to these groups I've ever
seen ---- and one of the least competent.

Sir Frank's book is a hefty volume of over 800 pages ---- including the
index and the pages assigned Roman numerals.

Quite obviously, Moody is prevaricating when he says he has read it ----
or else he has the memory capacity and the reading comprehension skills
of a retarded gnat.

Morcar, Earl of Northumbria ---- Moody The Dense needs to do his
homework on Morcar ---- and cease the babbling and back and fill
operation.

Hines approaches the quivering dog with a rolled-up copy of _The Wall
Street Journal_ in his hand.

Deus Vult.

How Sweet It Is!

to

|
| So, we now know that Moody has not even READ Sir Frank Stenton's
| _Anglo-Saxon England_ from which he pretends to have "reconstructed"
his
| bogus list.
|
| Morcar surrendered to the Conqueror after the Battle of Hastings and
was
| confirmed in his Earldom by William.
|
| Morcar and his brother Edwin later revolted against William.
|
| Sir Frank Stenton makes all this clear.
|
| In his haste, ignorance and carelessness, Moody has shafted the
| pooch ---- yet again.
